The Triton's competition
I would like to see a Ti black domina frame (like the "Ti" without the Lolipop bearing holders). But make it so you can customize the tube size for those who want their seat low and those who want it high. EDIT: I read the first page in the Triton thread, i guess it isn't possible (or with OT4?) because it has to be 1mm tubing -- Any Terrain 'The Great Chicago Meet-up Thread' (http://www.unicyclist.com/forums/showthread.php?t=63844) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Any Terrain's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/16258 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/70828 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |

If it turns out to be a quality product, there's quite a good chance I'll buy one once I could scrape the money together. I'd definitely be interested in an aluminum or Ti frame, in a 29er size. -- SqueakyOnion "That the people have a right to bear arms for the defence of themselves and the state;" -The Constitution of Pennsylvania - Sept. 28th, 1776 I am not a Texan.

I was thinking, especially make the frame square tubing. It'd increase its strength a lot. Thats what my plan was, and then i had some braces where the seatpost connects to for frame legs. like that area, so you dont break the tube thing off.. like Jon A has done. -- unibikeling 'sixsixone - Great equipment for all riding!'

I like how the nimbus frame looks, how it angles out and down and then the side pieces go over it a little. -- Kilian ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Kilian's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/17358 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/70828 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |

Mmm less expensive Ti frame... Yummy... I've got some frame ideas in my head I'll sketch some out too, Not sure how "structurally sound" my frame ideas would be but I'll sketch some up. -- Ducttape '-*buy my shirts*-' (www.zazzle.com/ducttapesunicycle*) '*watch my videos*' (http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=ducttapesunicycle) '*uniman comics*' (http://www.unicyclist.com/forums/showthread.php?t=53444) '*original thread for uniman*' (http://www.unicyclist.com/forums/showthread.php?t=49862) *'sigged quotes' (http://tinyurl.com/29b744)* ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Ducttape's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/12006 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/70828 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |

The Triton's competition
Some miscellaneous thoughts on the subject: 1) In addition to welding, you need a way to make or attach bearing mounts, seat posts, etc. IE, machining capabilities, and/or some really accurage jigs or other arrangements for getting geometry just so-so. 2) A lot of aluminum can be welded, but the welded portions will be much weaker near the weld as the effects of heat treating are lost in those areas. Solution is to heat-treat the whole thing after welding. 3) In some cases, you can obtain raw metal in odd sizes and small quanitites, but the unit cost may be much higher than what a manufacturer would pay for it. For example, you can buy heat-treated finished wrenches cheaper than you can buy the tool steel to make them out of. So that may make it difficult to compete on cost. -- StephenH ------------------------------------------------------------------------ StephenH's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/16659 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/70828 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |
